Summary

This study looks at how the 'watch and wait' approach affects the quality of life of 250 Korean adults with slow-growing lymphomas like CLL or follicular lymphoma. Researchers want to find out if waiting without treatment causes anxiety or worry. Participants will fill out questionnaires about their well-being. The goal is to understand the emotional impact of monitoring rather than treating the cancer right away.
